A House Divided Cannot Stand

A Warning For Democrats

A House Divided Cannot Stand

22 Then one was brought to Him who was demon-possessed, blind and mute; and He healed him, so that the blind and[a] mute man both spoke and saw. 23 And all the multitudes were amazed and said, “Could this be the Son of David?”

24 Now when the Pharisees heard it they said, “This fellow does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub,[b] the ruler of the demons.”

25 But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. 26 If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? 27 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges. 28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you.

Remember this headline from 2010.

Democrats lost big because young voters stayed home

Prior to this Political Ass Whipping Democrats suffered in 2010 at the hands of Republicans who do not represent Average American Citizens, Democrats committed the following sins:

1. Did not Support or Defend the Leader of the Democratic Party: President Obama

2. Did not Support or Promote the Merits of the Affordable Care Act, (Obamacare), to American Voters.

3. Did not Defend, Promote or Exhibit the Principals of the Democratic Party which is to give as many people as possible an equal chance to succeed, (even if they have not already succeeded by being rich and or powerful), and even if they cannot afford to buy you.

4. Fought amongst each other like cats and dogs

Note: If Republicans smell shit and tell their devotees and their comrades to make sure that everyone says they smell roses-then everyone who they are associated with would say that they smell roses, even though they know that it is shit they smell; which is what they are doing now in reverse.

They know that the Affordable Care Act, (with sincere support and honest concern for the millions of Americans who die every day because they don’t have health insurance), would be an undeniably successful program, like the Social Safety Net Programs that millions of our citizens benefit from now that started out as disasters and wound up being a part of the fabric of America; like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, VA Benefits and George W. Bush’s Part D Prescription Drug Plan, which started out, (in spite of Republican lies), just as screwed up,( if not more so) than “Obamacare”.

5. Let Republicans and Elections strike fear in your hearts, which caused severe division in the party which is a brilliant strategy employed by Republicans which far too many Democrats are falling for -again!

Ever notice that Republicans only start talking about “Bipartisanship” when Democrats are attacking the president or each other?

Strange isn’t it?

6. Abandoned all of the progress that we as a country have made to level the playing field through centuries of sacrifice, hard work and in some cases, the loss of life and limbs.

And now! Here we are again with a chance to protect the Senate, take back the House and be in a position to help millions of people in this country who are sick, poor, uneducated, disadvantaged, disabled and who have no ladder to step up on to move themselves out of their dire situations without Government Assistance, (which is something that rich people and corporations receive on a routine basis), even though they! Don’t need the help.

As Democratic Leaders, you all should know that Republicans are notorious for protecting this welfare for the rich while trying to eradicate the poor and the powerless through policies that are aimed at knocking down people who are already lying flat on their backs, where as Democrats, are supposed to be in the business of giving people a helping hand and a chance to get up.

This is what President Obama’s Affordable Care Act and many of his other policies are designed to do.

But because he is BLACK and Republicans decided in the very beginning of his presidency that he must be a “One-term President”, and now that his Signature Domestic Achievement; the Affordable Care Act is on the verge of being a success, they are trying to once again divide and conquer.

And to my horror, fear and shame; it appears as if they are succeeding, because instead of sticking by the truth about what the ACA and our party’s principals of helping people who cannot help themselves can do for this country, you are allowing these people to instill fear in your hearts as a result of something being imperfect, (which is what every damn thing that human beings create is); and now you are all in a panic, which is right where Republicans want you.

Since they could not make him a “One-Term President”, they now want to destroy what will go down in political history as one of the most successful progressive accomplishments of all times.

Those of you who are committing these acts of betrayal due to temporary negative circumstances and the Republicans acting like they like you and are in one accord with you, makes you appear as Puppets Dangling from Republican Strings.

These things are not only hurting the president, but you are also hurting the majority of the American People who are not rich or powerful.

You have the truth!

You have the power!

And the principals that you stand for are designed to help as many Americans as possible.

So what are you Democrats doing with all of these positive attributes in 2013?

1. Not Supporting the Leader of the Democratic Party: President Obama

2. Not Supporting or Promoting the Merits of the Affordable Care Act, (Obamacare)

3. Not Defending, Promoting or Exhibiting the Principals of the Democratic Party which is to give as many people as possible an equal chance to succeed, (even if they have not already succeeded by being rich and or powerful), and even if they cannot afford to buy you.

4. Fighting amongst each other like cats and dogs

5. Letting Republicans and Elections strike fear in your hearts, which is causing severe division in the party which is a brilliant strategy employed by Republicans which far too many of you are falling for-again!

Hell! They are even making pretend that they love President Clinton now, because of a stupid statement that he made that basically supports the idea that people who have insurance that will not protect them when they get sick, should have the right to keep it.

Well Hell Bill!

Why don’t we reverse the laws on smoking inside of buildings and let non-smokers get cancer because of someone else’s foolish pleasure?

How about not wearing Motor cycle Helmets?

How about not requiring drivers to have Auto Insurance?

How about not requiring home owners to have Home Owner’s Insurance?

How about we remove Airbags and Seatbelts from all Automobiles?

What about removing Speed Limits on our highways?

6. Abandoning all of the progress that we as a country have made to level the playing field through centuries of sacrifice, hard work and in some cases, the loss of life and limbs.

I am a proud Democrat who takes pride in the fact that the party that I am a member of has the desire and ability to learn from its mistakes for the worthwhile goal of helping as many people as possible succeed in this country.

Why would you repeat the mistakes of 2010 when you have the roses and they have the shit?
